1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Obesity rates continue to climb worldwide. Obesity often contributes to other comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, heart disease and is a known risk factor for many malignancies. Bariatric surgeries are by far the most invasive treatment options available but are often the most effective and can result in profound, durable weight loss with improvement in or resolution of weight associated comorbidities. Currently performed bariatric surgeries include Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, and laparoscopic gastric banding. These surgeries are associated with significant weight loss, but also with significant rates of major complications. The complexity of these patients and surgical anatomies makes management of these complications by a multidisciplinary team critical for optimal outcomes. Minimally invasive treatments for complications are typically preferred because of the high risk associated with repeat operations. Endoscopy plays a large role in both the diagnosis and the management of complications. Endoscopy can provide therapeutic interventions for many bariatric surgical complications including anastomotic strictures, anastomotic leaks, choledocholithiasis, sleeve stenosis, weight regain, and eroded bands. Endoscopists should be familiar with the various surgical anatomies as well as the various therapeutic options available. This review article serves to delineate the current role of endoscopy in the management of complications after bariatric surgery.
